Special Delivery is a 1976 American neo-noir comedy crime film directed by Paul Wendkos and starring Bo Svenson and Cybill Shepherd. Plot A gang of thieves plan a daring bank robbery, making their escape across the rooftops of Los Angeles. The police are quickly called in, however, and only one of the robbers, Murdock, makes a clean getaway. Unfortunately, in order to do so, he is forced to dump the stolen cash into a mailbox, which he then finds is locked until midnight, forcing him to wait until the mailman makes his late night pickup. As he waits, he discovers that his hiding place has been observed by several other people, all of whom want a share of the loot. Cast Bo Svenson as Jack Murdock. Cybill Shepherd as Mary Jane Tom Atkins as Zabelski Sorrell Booke as Hubert Zane Gerrit Graham as Swivot Michael C. Gwynne as Graff Reception Vincent Canby of The New York Times was not amused: "Michael C. Gwynne has some good moments as a junkie, but neither Paul Wendkos, who directed the film, nor Don Gazzaniga, who wrote it, is very adept at melodrama and action. The film ends in a car chase of the sort that makes you realize that the screeching of tires has become the most overused and boring sound in movies today."
